Along with tweets about DACA, North Korea and a parsing of the difference between chaos and energy, Trump couldn’t resist taking a swipe at those Hollywood elites by gloating about the ratings for Sunday night’s 90th Academy Awards

It’s the second part of his statement that demands both scrutiny and criticism. This year’s Oscar ceremony was a significant step in Hollywood’s walking the walk of its diversity talk. Jordan Peele, Greta Gerwig, and many others, both nominees and presenters – gave the broadcast a fresher look than it’s had in years.

As host Jimmy Kimmel said, “If you are a nominee tonight who isn’t making history, shame on you,” Kimmel said. So maybe these Oscar newcomers don’t merit Trump’s capital S-for-Star treatment. His loss.

But Hollywood wasn’t the only one of Trump’s favorite bug-a-boos to get slammed today. Apparently having watched – or maybe still watching – cable news coverage of Sam Nunberg’s great unravel, Trump blamed it all on Fake News.

“The new Fake News narrative is that there is CHAOS in the White House,” Trump tweeted today. “Wrong! People will always come & go, and I want strong dialogue before making a final decision. I still have some people that I want to change (always seeking perfection). There is no Chaos, only great Energy!”
